Answer 1

Answer:

In all aspects, the title of the story 'A Triumph of Surgery’ is quite appropriate. In fact, the title is based on the main idea of the story. This chapter is all about the surgery and its triumph. Surgery refers to medical support and treatment. Mrs. Pumphrey, who is a very rich woman, has a pet dog named Tricki. She can’t see it in any trouble. She loves it so much that she becomes responsible for its over-eating. Tricki falls ill. She becomes very sad and calls the doctor, Mr. Herriot, who is a veterinary surgeon. He admits Tricki to the hospital for surgery. In reality, he cuts its diet and makes it do some hard exercise. It becomes well after treatment. The irony is that the doctor understands the cause and remedy of the problem and treats the dog without any real surgery. But Mrs. Pumphrey thinks that the dog's recovery is a triumph of surgery because of the dog's plight. When Tricki is brought to the surgery, it is very ill. But at the end of the story, it is full of energy and has no ailment. So the title is quite appropriate.
